tapped a keypad
and frog-like-lilly-leaps
found me
fly-like with

after so strong a bound

Little by little befuddled
Overwhelmed; off track or muddled
Scatterbrained; astray and puzzled
Tapped out; tore up or bumfuzzled

Tapped messages go out direct
With phones it's an easy connect
Thoughts from a finger
In cyberspace linger
But touching's too much to expect

I tapped the poetry bin
Naught but an empty echo
The stillness of a blank wall
Decorated by a frozen Gecko

I know who you are
A terrorist living In my closest
tapped by greed
I feel you
Engaged you to become everyone'
blood drops
Of nothing
For nothing

Verse
Awkward sunrises confuse
A broken heart
And a window tapped outside
Cracks open to reveal
A staggering splendor
And taking in the scenery
I see
Me without you

I do not know?
I feel like writing silly tales
About a typist who had long manicured nails
She tapped the typewriter so slow
Until her boss told her she had to go
To employ her was beyond the pale

August spills rains
with tapped grains, like
pearl veins on roofs
Drenched in soft hue,
toes play new songs
of blue night’s chant

WORTHY WEALTH
In my dilemma
I saw no way to keep my Mama
On the wheel of wealth
And to keep my educational growth and health
But in the my furious fear of losing both
My Mama tapped me and said, ‘Akwasi, go to school’.

I can’t afford
pride
I’m poorer
than that
I can’t afford
humility
Accomplishment
lacks
I can’t afford
vengeance
All hate
for myself
And least afford
love
Emotion
— unfelt

Autumn will soon be here,
With colourful leaves bared,
From the limbs of oak trees,
And-- the maple shall seep
Tapped of syrup so sweet,
Confection shall fill the air…
Such beauty makes one stare
As autumn fills the air...

His Brain Has Knapped
All other subjects Trump has scrapped;
Now how about by Obama being wire tapped?
More intelligence must have been lost
When all of his wires were totally crossed;
Forever we think his brain has knapped.

Kid, states is paid
Tapped your hand pad out
No grissle on the iron
Steam tears of fear
Preposterous approval
Applicants endure sub traction
Textworth of link sis
Under obligated
Your sheath
Envelopes back paying crime rent

Warming tears,
wept from jilted skies,
whorl the ocean’s patient soul.
Fragile signs - unread, are everywhere;
shoulders tapped by glacial ghosts,
shrug in nonchalance.

Paper art was tongue steeped wet,
Midnight’s swim in gel.
Tactile only silhouette,
Dense unseen new shell.
Dawn’s hot shower could not clean,
Midday’s warmth woke me.
Slow cures had tapped time’s canteen,
Blotter’s spell rinsed free.

You affected me in a way
easily compared
to the tapping of a vein
Quickly,
without hesitation
Waiting for the steady stream
of blood
you knew would come
Except you didn't tap a vein,
you tapped my heart
And received
my love
instead.

I do not know?
A river that flows silently from one’s psyche
Fragile, tenuous, abiding
I sigh like a thirsty traveller reaching an oasis at dusk
A sailor welcomed into the bosom of a secure shore
I search unceasingly for meaning and words
Marvel at creativity waiting to be tapped

What madness is this?
Could you not resist~
Such a blow carried
Hard pressed on mine ears
As tapped without fist
I need not hear
Your words again
Give me time, now
To absorb them
'Tis not -- our
first-- greeting
Such an end…
We’ve lost
One more
Friend…

By-Tahera Mannan
A gentle warmth tapped at my old door
Green leaves slipped out from under white
A sensual breeze caressed
The flowers and ripe fruits
His warm breath touched me
As our lips met
Butterflies
Softly
Blush

I know some may
prefer the way
of folks direct, up front
Some love panache
forthright and brash,
outspoken as you want
Some may prefer
the crash and blur
of histrionics bolder
But as for me
I'd rather be
tapped gently on the shoulder

Victims claim the well must be capped
Zapped off by their hands two times clapped
But oil will still leak
While their talking heads speak
Logic tapped from minds that have snapped
Author's note: Are the people on this site too high class to know about the clapper? I thought this was funny????

The pace of belief,
Just tapped
whenever,
Counsels towards
focus,
But from the heart's
rut.
Lived over the
hills,
Now in the lamb's
court,
Justice to write
home about,
And no more
upstates.
Holds firm -
ransacked,
Canon of salvation,
And pasture of the
word,
That is why God
exists...

As a poet
you
realize that
once you've
tapped into the
creative realm
beyond religion
and its constraints
beyond evil and its
perceived vile
you find a kind of
an ecstatic freedom
that is addictive beyond
any manufactured drugs known
to us here now
and you can't stop
ever.
